    Hi
    This car came to me due to the radiator fan not working.
    A few checks and tests, revealed that the fan was operational, but for some reason the ECU was reporting open circuits on speed 1, and speed 2.
    At start, it was looking like it would be an easy fix, but never is...
    Follow me on this video, to find out what the problem was, and how to resolve it.

    Quick tip for you. When the scanner says to turn off engine and ignition back on, don't turn the key all the way off because you will lose communication with the scan tool just like you did. Turn the key back one position which will turn off the engine but still keep the ignition feed to the OBD port open, so your scanner doesn't lose communiction with OBD port.

    • @therivalryan
      @therivalryan 6 років тому +9

      Terminal 30 is always present on OBD regardless of ignition position, Engine ECU will lose T15 once key turned back even to accessory position so will make no difference.

    Not many people would clear out the leaves. Water should drain away better than getting blocked up.
    The ECU should have been sealed to be water tight and located in a better place.
    I thought the ceramic resistor was very expensive and poorly made. Similar resistors in old radios last decades...the mains droppers.
    Quite a repair job on the tracks...another great fix.

    Excellent in depth video. Just put deposit down on Corsa D 1.3 Cdti, then saw this video 2 days later. When car is mine, will check for water damage around ECU Asap! Didn't test drive or check controls, but the man fired up engine. After 3 seconds of hunting, engine sounded good and smooth. (Was low on fuel). Man has put on new glow plugs, new fuel filter, new back box, 2 new tyres and car will be MOT'd within a few days. ECU must be good or he would not be doing all that to a car with a bad ECU. Plus, he is a mechanic by trade. Fingers crossed!

    It's very easy to do a diagnos if you have an electric diagram
    When you remove the rele you can test if you have power=12v on nr 30 or nr 87.
    If you haven't power then the problem can be a blown fuse

    Louis, Hi, The resistor or diode across the coil in a relay is purely a snubber or buffer to protect the delicate ecu electronics from the back emf voltage spike when ecu switches it off. The ecu will monitor the battery voltage coming through the actual coil in the relay when the ecu is switching it off IE an open circuit ground. If ecu doesn't see battery voltage then it flags a circuit code..... I think. That's most probably why ecu's switch ground

    good morning, great video. My corsa (2007 1.4) started having a/c issues (it would stop cooling randomly), then I noticed the cooling fan started to act, and eventually, the engine management light came on. I took the car to the shop, they say me there is a problem with the ECU and they have to send it to a specialized company to refurbish it. 400 quid. What do you think, does it sound legit to you? Thanks.

    • @LMAutoRepairs

      You can get an used ecu for way less...
      That said, the first thing that comes to my head, is what tests they did to conclude that the ecu is faulty...🤔
      It is possible, as those Corsa have the ecu attached to the intake, being subjected to all the engine vibrations...

    I just made the same discovery, changed a really bad resistor but still no spinning fan! However, I don't get any fault codes. If I bridge the relays, the fan works. But i only get 1 V to the relays when I measure to ground. I will treat to ground the ecu-connector later, I suspect the ECU. But the 1 V to relays confuses me! Suggestions?

      I went out to the car again and this time I've got 12 V. Must have been sleeping last time. I followed your instructions and grounded pin 7, 8 and 29 in the connector to the ECU, just like you did, and the fan spun.
      I removed the ECU for the second time this year, but it was all fine! No broken connections.
      So, I have a working fan, a ECU that looks fine and a temp sensor they gets 5 V and goes from 2,1 ohms to 0,8 ohms in hot water. I would be so grateful if you had any suggestion? Can I test the ECU somehow, beside testing the continuity on connectors?

      If the ecu is the same hardware part number, yes...
      All the info is on the eprom... only the injector codes(in case of being a diesel...)can be stored in the flash... but you can easily check that and change afterwards...

      Great stuff can reprogram the injector codes in after on opcom I get a read on opcom with bad board one code is replace ECU so if I get a same code board and swap my eprom do I need to anything else

      Even some old Volkswagens have the ECU placed in a similar spot... Like the Polo 6N and the golf mk4... With all the space in the engine bay 🤣
